Masters 2024: Where Players Rarely Yell ‘FORE’ By Mike May As we begin the countdown to the Masters this year. It will inspire all of us to get our short game in top gear. It’s true that the playing of the Masters is a rite of spring. It’s like enjoying Coca-Cola, as the Masters is also the real thing. One of this event’s special traditions is the Tuesday night Champions’ dinner. It’s attended by players who have all earned the title: Masters winner. At Augusta, Jack, Tom, and Gary will each hit tee shots on day one. Being present for those legends is a true thrill and lots of fun. The Masters attracts players who all want to win the Jacket colored Green. It will probably be given to the player who is that week’s top putting machine. The Masters celebrates and honors the players from the present and the past. But, Augusta’s hilly terrain makes it tough for older players to avoid finishing last. At the Masters, amateurs are invited to live and sleep in the Crow’s Nest. Here, it’s spacious and comfy, which makes that area the best for daily rest. This year’s Masters favorites will truly be international in scope, As players from Asia, Europe, and Africa will play with confidence and hope. The top Americans will be Justin, Dustin, Brooks, and Scottie, too. Each of those players could easily win this year’s Masters, if not quite a few. You can watch all the action on your phone, tablet, computer and your TV. The best coverage will be on CBS which will be free for all to see. If Bobby Jones were alive today to see how this event has grown, He’d be amazed by the course’s beauty and how the grass is grown. Of course, the food at the Masters is always tasty and sold at a fair price. That gives patrons more money to spend on souvenirs which is always nice. Roses are red and violets are blue. The world of golf is looking forward to its annual Amen Corner rendezvous. Indiana Golf Journal
